AJudicrous nIishau.

An amusing incident happened to the United
States mail wagon. yesterday afternoon, about
430 o'clock 1t was being driven rapidly up
Meridian street, and when 1t reached the turn
ing point on Circle street it suddenly stopped,
at least the wagon and driver did, If not the
motive power. The turn being made at
full speed, when all at once the shafts became
detached from the axle of the wagon, the lines
were ierked out of the drivers hands. and the
horse went on its wsv around the Circle and
east on Market street. with the shafts flashing
it's sides at each step and goadine increased
speed. The vehicle tented itself by
ly turning halfway around, while Uncle Sans
hired hand stood guard over its treasures, won
derlng what had happened.

LETTERS FROM THE PEOPLE.
A Mu@yurnp Threat.

TO the Editor of the Indianapolis Journal:
The News learns that some of the present Re-
publican State officials are DESTROYS OF having
a candidate other than Colonel Robertson to
indicate that these gentlemen are counting de-
feat for themselves. IL the Republican party of
Indiana desire to commit political hari-kari, the
surest way to accomplish that PURPOSE is to take
mp any other candidate than Colonel Robertson
and by doing acknowledge that Green Smith
was justified in his claims. and that the man
elected as Lieutenant governor of Indiana was
a pretender and fraud-Ft Wayne News.
Colonel Robertson should pray deliver
from friends. It is poor policy for the friends
OF Colonel Robertson to attempt to secure his
nomination by threat. It seems to me the
State officials have as much right as anybody TO
have their choice for Governor. It is NOT just
the thing for the News to say, ''vote for man
we will scratch you off the ticket" Ii is the
spirit of the buldozer.
The Republican party of Indiana will vote the
ticket whether the Colonel Is on it or not.
They do not intend to commit ''hari-kari"
whatever that Is.
Colonel Robertson is splendid man. But it
seems he has ''fool friends" The News is
one of the latter class. This is the second time
1t has said there is no man in the State can lead
the party to victory but its candidate. How
does it know? 1t is not a Republican paper. 1t
belongs to the independent mugwump species.
1t may not support the Republican ticket when
the time comes no matter who is on it. You
never can bet on these political saints.
1t occurs to the writer that a little modesty
on its part in advising and threatening Repub-
licans would not only be becoming bur would
absolutely adorn the Fort Wayne News.
i hope no fair minded Republicans will hold
Colonel Robertson responsible for it's folly.
Yours for the whole ticket no matter who is
Oh it. K.
WARSAW, Nov. "a. 1887.
